“I love her writing but am distracted by her preaching. Most of us who read this book are already local foodies. I would like the book more if the sermons were left to the sidebars her husband wrote. In the end however the book made its point and I may even try to make my own cheese....heck if she can do it I can!”

“Very thought provoking. The agricultural gap is only one generation deep in our family. I hope to remedy that soon. Moving to a small town will be joining a CSA and trying danged hard to spend all our money locally. ”
“This book challenged me to think about what I eat in a new light. It encouraged to me to seek out all of the local foods that I possibly can and to take joy in the process. I am already looking forward to reading it again.”
